No typo. LOL! I had to take them both. 5017 is Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment. The scores above were from my 5018 Content Knowledge, so we are talking the same test! I take 5203, Teaching Reading on Monday!

Hi everybody, I've read through all this and feel a lot more confident about my score, I'm glad this forum was here! Just took the test April 7, raw score of 108, don't know my scaled score yet.

But I saw a lot of people struggling with the concepts and saying they had a hard time studying. I just wanted to pass along that I was in the same boat, but I found a YouTube series called Crash Course that has tons of videos on US History, World History, Biology, Chemistry, etc... I binged watched like 40 hours of them and they ABSOLUTELY helped me pass the test, some of the questions I got I knew solely from watching these videos. Just thought I'd pass along my success to others and see if it could help anyone else prepare!

I was looking into retesting because I was sure I didn't hit 163! I'm so glad this wasn't an April fools joke. Lol.
My test date (3/17), ets had a major malfunction and the test was down nation wide. It was scheduled for 8:30am and we didn't get to test until 11:30am. Everyone's nerves were bad and I just couldn't concentrate! But I tested anyway and walked away with a passing score!

Well based on your score I think now there might be hope for me. I got a 78 raw and need a 163. The scoring makes no sense! They are all different. I have heard you need an 83 to pass.

Are you guys currently waiting on scores? I'm panicking because I either barely passed or just missed it!

I took both 5018 Content Knowledge and 5017, Curriculum Instruction and Assessment on April 7, and I just took 5023 Teaching Reading yesterday, so I am still waiting on scores. Definitely going to be a long 3 weeks!

For sure! Tennessee by chance? I have to take the exact same ones to relocate there.

In my opinion, 5018 is the beast because I am weaker in math and my particular version, I felt, had a lot of higher level math....plus the content areas are so vast. 5017 was not too bad and I thought 5203 was the easiest, but Reading is kind of my thing. I don't think I am breaking confidentiality by saying that there are essay questions on that one though addressing scenarios. I just hope we get 5018 behind us!

Me too, this was try 2 for me and I'm over it! I also tried 5017 and didn't pass so I'm hoping for the best on reading and that one again. I'm praying I passed 5018. It's going to be a close one. I only got a 78.

You never know! I hate leaving there an d literally having no idea....but hopefully we will all get good news!!!!

That's nothing to be ashamed of. The first time I took it I got a 73 raw/151 scaled. I just took it again and only got a 78. I'm praying for a 163! What did you get for scale and how many questions was it out of?

I just got done taking the Praxis 5018 today and it had 140 questions. Here were my raw scores

E/L 27
Math 27
SS 12
Science 13

I am debating on whether or not to sign up for the next praxis exam because
i dont know if I passed. I dont want to wait for my scores because I am on a time limit. If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it

My score was one point less than you and if our test ends up being out of 118 I think we might have squeaked by. Prayers up!
